Answer:

170 N

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass (m) = 20 Kg

Angle (θ) = 30°

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Weight (W) =?

The perpendicular component of the weight can be obtained by using the following formula:

W = mg × Cosθ

W = 20 × 9.8 × Cos 30

W = 196 × 0.866

W = 169.7 ≈ 170 N

Therefore, perpendicular component of the weight is 170 N

Delicious77 [7]

The broom handle that she have to balance if she hung a 400g mass from the end of the broom handle is 5.24m

This problem is centered on moment. Moment is the turning effect of a force about a point. It is expressed as:

Moment = Force× Distance

According to principle of moment, the sum of clockwise moment is equal to sum of anticlockwise moment at shown

M1d1 = M2d2

Given the following

M1 = 1.5kg

d1 = 1.4m

M2 = 400g = 0.4kg

d2 is required

Substitute

1.5(1.4) = 0.4d2

2.1 = 0.4d2

d2 = 2.1/0.4

d2 = 5.24m

Hence the broom handle that she have to  if she hung a 400g mass from the end of the broom handle is 5.24m
